It actually feels great.
50% of people are just dumm.
Dummmm dummmmm dummmmmmmmm.
They'll go along with whatever you tell them is accepted for fear of standing out.
Maybe over 50%, I haven't done a scientific study just eyeballing it. Anyways, it's almost always about who controls the head. The head of the state, the head of the media. The head of the social group. Etc. Internet opened it up and overthrew "establishment media"...fooor about 5 years. Maybe 10.
1995-2005?
Now we're back where we started but with the misconception that we're "free" and that everything we read ...isn't* astroturdfed from above by AI bots and paid posters from around the world. In many ways, the informational atmosphere is much, much more dangerous and shitty than it used to be. Russia...could never get away with printing a million op-ed pieces and getting that into print. They can posts literally millions of posts online.I said Russia but China is the real enemy. Along with India...which nobody ever mentions.
India has a huge commie contingent and Indians are clever enough to pretend t not be involved in it.
Well that's fucking racist.
lol, maybe?
would it really matter?
There has been a bunch of trolls here ...slowly trickling in ever since the election. Should've seen the people here during 2016! Great bunch of people not afraid to PUNCH UP. Now? Buncha DOWN PUNCHERS who make fun of gays and are just dumbfuck conformists who don't even know Trump and came to the Trump Train after he was elected.
TL;DR: there's a bunch of weak-minded, conformist cunts on the train as of late.
Donations. People run all the time and just use the donations for personal stuff.
Also, notoriety. They may not have a snowball's chance in hell this time but it gives them a little bit more face and name recognition for next time. ~~DJT ran in 2012, remember? ~~That experience and name / political recognition helped in 2016. More people knew where he stood.
Edit: MY MISTAKE. he didn't officially run. From an article on The Guardian:
Faced with the choice of hosting The Apprentice or taking on Barack Obama in next year's election, Donald Trump opted to stick with his television programme.
The multimillionaire has formally announced he will not be joining the small band of candidates seeking the Republican nomination for the White House race.
Few US political commentators took his campaign seriously and many suggested he was only in it for the publicity.
In a statement, he said: "After considerable deliberation and reflection, I have decided not to pursue the office of the presidency. This decision does not come easily or without regret, especially when my potential candidacy continues to be validated by ranking at the top of the Republican contenders in polls across the country."
Modesty is not a Trump characteristic and this is reflected in his statement. "I maintain the strong conviction that if I were to run, I would be able to win the primary and, ultimately, the general election."
He added: "I have spent the past several months unofficially campaigning and recognise that running for public office cannot be done half-heartedly. Ultimately, however, business is my greatest passion and I am not ready to leave the private sector."
Ever take a shit? Feels good, huh?
